I have major sleep issues so I do suspect I would do very well in an inside cabin. We do use our balconies a TON though. Definitely get our money’s worth,

22 days for me!

Thank, I just checked and yes, it’s called a vista suite but it’s really just a plain old balcony cabin lol. We have only had balconies and suites… snobs like that so just wanted to make sure I didn’t accidentally book an inside cabin. (I love the idea of cruising more in an inside cabin but DH says absolutely not so….. lol)

Wait, so my balcony cabin isn’t a balcony cabin? I sure as heck don’t have a suite. Off to check .

Zaandam is a small ship. 1200 pax. There isn’t going to be mega ship offerings on small ships. Ask me again in a month after I debark from her in Boston.

I’m so sorry to hear this news. What is it that you need from HAL?

I plan to hit the ATM and don’t convert at the machine. Let your bank convert. And use CC. years ago in Vancouver and whistler they took US dollars, but they GREATLY APPRECIATED local currently. I used to get my bank to get me $100 before I left, but the exchange rate in doing that is not advantageous, so really it’s just easier to hit a ATM, but when it gives you the two button choice of convert or don’t convert, it’s usually better to hit don’t convert.

Thank you

@Charles4515 bummer, thank you for checking

Gorgeous!

Ok so Ollie’s and the Acadia bus tour both don’t start yet when I go (May 5) so I guess I have to go through the ship which I didn’t want to do (reviews aren’t great)

Ok, I don’t know what to do. Both of these don’t start for the season when I’ll be there (May 5). So am I not going to the park?

No updates on her blog either.

Thanks, we would like to go to Arcadia NP but not in a bus with everyone else. I’ll work on that this weekend. Thanks.

Is there a car rental close to port? I need to book something for bar harbor for May 5!!! It’s been busy around here and we are just getting around to figuring out what we want to do. Thanks.

@skittlebug83 great catch, thank you. Bummer. @jdavid thank you very much

Thank you so much

How do we sign up for the laundry service? Thanks

@LHT28 thanks you. Sounds like something we like!

I’m not sure where we want to go. We are late in booking excursions and so many are sold out. I’m doing my research. Thanks!

Is the terrain flat or what? I had both knees replaced so still a little tippy on things like cobblestone. Thanks. Also, do they drive on the same side of the street as in the US? Thanks.

@Denise T thank you. That may be exactly what we do.

I so enjoyed reading her grand africa trip report. I hope she is hanging in there. Does anyone talk with her offline? Thanks.

Zaandam will port at Bar Harbor on May 5 as of right now. I’m on that cruise.

I’m on the sailing after OP Montréal to Boston and I have not gotten a notice so as far as I know today, we are still going.
